Hi
How are people spending Christmas? I have to stay away for my own sanity - I find this hard, very hard to do but I can't sit opposite my sister knowing I discovered memories of her sexually abusing me at age 12. She's never accepted me, in fact the whole family does not accept me. So why spend Christmas and play 'happy family'? In fact I can't go to any more social family gatherings due to the above reasons. Anybody else in my situation?? PH |

I am so sorry this happened to you. I wouldn't be able to go myself. My sisters and I have known for years that my paternal grandfather was the abuser who acted out sexually toward my youngest sister and myself. My other sister just discovered that he sexually abused his niece.
Right now, after a long road of therapy for that and depression, I still have a hard time the way my mother absolutely glorifies my grandfather. Ugh, gross~ There are so many people here @ PC that can help, if nothing else to lend an ear. I hope you stay here; there are others in your shoes. Cat |
